More about these coloring pages

My 5-year-old, Lily, was excited to color the crucifixion coloring page for preschool this week. We discussed how Jesus loved us so much that He gave His life for us. As she colored the cross, I mentioned how He said, 'It is finished.' (John 19:30) It was touching to see her grasp the story's meaning. The six images included help illustrate key moments, like the cross and the crowd. During our snack time, I noticed the kids were still talking about Jesus' love. I plan to use these pages again in future lessons!
